Well--I'm a Geek--fix/build/sell computers fer a livin' and I recommend getting an LCD. The image quality has gone way up in the past couple years. I picked up a 19" ViewSonic (VX922) about a year ago and I'll never go back to a CRT.

As far as what to buy? Go to a store that has many on display and see what you like. Then go to a site like newegg.com and check customer feedback. You can get good 19" LCD's now for very little cash. And remember this: a 19" LCD has a larger viewable display size than a 19" CRT does.

Watch out for the widescreen though. You may have a lot of programs that won't display correctly (they'll be stretched) on a widescreen.

When it comes to monitor's, beauty is in the eye of the owner, so I won't make any specific recommendations.

Cheers!
